Hello! I recently started playing and am loving it!

As I'm playing, I'm finding that it would be nice to "reserve" materials for a specific build. It would also be useful to have a way to pin a certain number of resources or buildings/upgrades/etc. for more visible goal setting.

Here's some simple examples:

Current planning method without resource reservation

1. I want to build a Warehouse.
2. I need 10k more wood and minerals to make the requisite beams and slabs.
3. I make a mental note and begin working on other tasks.
4. I realize I have enough starcharts and plate to make a Trading Ship but need to build scaffolds.
5. I create said scaffolds and build a Trade Ship.
6. I go back to check the progress of my Warehouse resources and see that I used a large portion of the wood I needed.
7. Shucks

Planning method with resource reservation

1. I want to build a Warehouse.
2. I need 10k more wood and minerals to make the requisite beams and slabs.
3. I pin the Warehouse and set the target total to 1x.
4. An item appears in my Pins denoting that I am working towards a Warehouse.
   1. The pinned text is likely red or grey until it can be built.
5. I begin looking at other tasks.
6. I realize I have enough starcharts and plate to make a Trading Ship but need to build scaffolds.
7. I attempt to build scaffolding but am warned that this material is reserved for another build.
   1. This could be done as a popup or as a non-clickable button/link with some helper text.
   2. This could even be given a different color to denote that it's reserved rather than unachievable with current caps.
8. I abandon the Trading Ship and instead build a Steamworks.

The above tool/feature would also benefit those that have a target structure/upgrade/etc. in mind but are prone to forgetting when stepping away for an extended time. Granted, this part could be resolved with a simple notepad entry, but still.

I hope this helps further improve the game or, at minimum, inspires a modder out there.

Have fun y'all!
